Was taken on weekend, I didn't get a call, most people have cell phones, it's not weighted correctly, it's a clever ploy to bolster Hillary, and just because I don't like it.

These polls are totally different every 5 minutes. Only idiots would believe them.

This poll is definitely at odds with other recent polls. Hard to believe Hillary is up 12 points and would beat Trump 56-44%.

I don’t believe this for a minute. I think they disqualify you in most instances if you say you support Trump. I know I have gotton some surveys online and once I say I am supporting him, the survey tells me I did not qualify!

This poll is an outlier. Most of the polls are showing Trump at least even, if not ahead.

Given the very frightening world events, and Hillary’s complicity in many of them (she was the architect of the middle east instability, by some accounts), I expect Trump’s numbers to keep climbing while Hillary tanks.

A poll released today indicated that people will believe absolutely anything, as long as the information is based on a poll that was released today.

I’m a HUGE worrier and even I know this is pure BS.

Ras had him up by 7.

Times had him even!!! the Times!!

Either way, I would do everything in my power to undermine her presidency and bring down her government if she won.

Strange, NBC poll had her up by only three, LA Times poll had Trump ahead by three, CBS/NY Times poll had it even and Rasmussen had Trump up by seven. Quinnipiac had Trump ahead or tied in major battleground states. None of these polls had her up by 12; as I recall, the Reuters poll is grossly overweighted with Democrats, something like 45-30, which ain’t the case.
